Asking a girl...

**b12** · 03-03-2008 01:57 AM

So my fraternity's formal is coming up, and there's this girl i want to ask. The formal is called the Carnation Ball.

I have an idea. In her mailbox, i want to put an anonymous note (she'll know it's me, but oh well) saying something like "Look for the White Carnations"

And then in random places around campus where she will be, i'm going to place those carnations. I want to leave one on her desk in a class she has, but that would be hard since i'd have to ask her for her schedule, pretty much giving it away even more, find out where she sits, and then go there hoping she won't be there early or anyone messes around with it. The last one will go on her desk in her room with a note telling her to meet me in a room at my fraternity at a certain time. There, i'll have a few small candles and a single carnation in my hand, possibly dressed in a suit, and ask her face-to-face if she'd go with me.

I've given her small hints -- when we went suit shopping, i asked what the color of her favorite dress she had was when picking out ties. I also asked her if she's free on the weekend of the 18th, when we go to formal.

I should utilize the pledges -- make them randomly give her carnations when they see her

What do you guys think?

AWWWW id LOVE it if someone did that for me!
Thats so romantic.

Good luck!

Cute! But sounds like a pain in the ass.

**Sornaensis** · 03-03-2008 02:07 AM

Good luck...

**b12** · 03-03-2008 02:09 AM

I really like this girl, so i want to do something to impress her and something that she'll remember.

**Sornaensis** · 03-03-2008 02:09 AM

Sounds like a plan, but as ninja said, it sounds like it'd be a pian to set up.

Good luck

As said, It may be a pain in the ass, but don't let that discourage you man. That just sounds amazing, and our society could do with more people willing to go to such lengths! Don't let however daunting the task seems discourage you. Put that much effort into something, and its going to pay off!

Good Luck man, though with something like that I doubt you'll need luck

I just asked my roommate and his girlfriend if they thought it was a good idea and they said hell no, it would be creepy unless i was actually her boyfriend. And they said the carnation in the room thing would creep her out

**Mes Tarrant** · 03-03-2008 03:03 AM

Yeah, that's a really sweet idea, but I think it should only be done if you know that she's really interested in you, or if you've been dating for a while and you're like.. proposing or something.

If she's not all that interested in you, she might find that a bit extreme to be honest. If you still want to do something sweet, I'd just leave her a little bouquet somewhere and a nice note.

**b12** · 03-03-2008 03:28 AM

Well, her friend said she gets excited every time she sees me, her roommate says she notices her doing all these little things to look really cute when she's coming over, she's slept over a few times and me once at her place, we held hands and kissed in front of her younger sister, and from what she tells me i'm pretty sure she's interested.

**Spartiate** · 03-03-2008 04:26 AM

Heh, something so elaborate will almost certainly fail, just because these kinds of complex things rarely work out the way they were intended

. Would make for a good anecdote, but something simpler may be more reliable.

You will probably end up looking back at it and thinking that you were very stupid, but you might as well go for it.

What have you got to lose? Except for a lot of time and possibly the girl. Maybe a little self respect.

Is she hot?

**b12** · 03-03-2008 07:25 AM

She's very hot. Greatest body i have ever seen, no lie. Plus her personality matches mine -- really chill, always happy, never really gets mad. She's not stuck up, high-maintenance, or "me me me" like the girls i usually date.

I'm thinking about going a little simpler. Flower/note in the room leading to my room, flower/note in my room leading to the basement, candles and flower in the basement. But maybe that's still a little elaborate? Who knows. I just want her to remember this.

NO BASEMENT.

Basement= bad.

I like your original idea, it just.. seems really complex, and hard to do.

Just have one of the pledges give her a carnation and a note, and have the note have a meeting place and time, and then just be there with some flowers or something.

Or glomp her.

Seems like a lot of work to go through just for a crushing rejection.
